darklord Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 1 hour ago, Blatter said: Lets not build up the expectation level to such a point that anything less than a 6-0 win on his debut will be a disappointment. My feeling is that he's here because the club know they can't rely on Hutchinson. Give him time to settle. (His presence around the place does already seem to have affected David Jones though) makes a change from them being written off before hes played!

I spent a bit of time watching the whole Heracles v Ajax game from last August in which he played. I posted my comments regarding what sort of player he was in another thread. I think people are expecting a bit much. As I posted, he's an organiser, very much defensive minded regardless of what we are doing as a team and above all he is disciplined. He can get stuck in, but he's not Hutch. He's not going to take man, ball, Desso, shinpads and blood with his tackling. Take the goal he scored from 30 yards with a pinch of salt. Heracles were 4-1 up and hammering Groningen (I think). I personally think he will go about his business quietly and efficiently, we won't notice him on the pitch but the players and the manager will appreciate him more than anything. It is a step up for him, make no mistake, with no disrespect to the Eredivisie. Lets judge him over 10 games, not 1 watched on a small tv screen, where the only thing you see is what is shown, not the running off the ball 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you what... that is the best whipped in free kick we’ve produced this season (one where he hammered it in the first half). Rhodes should have done better. Think Jones is enjoying that extra bit of protection in a three. Was getting exposed in a flat four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopePiusX Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I tell you what, you've got to have something about you to have the name Pelupessy and still make it. What I'm saying is that we should only sign people with terrible names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree mate, I think he was also exposed by playing next to Bannan, whoever plays next to him has to do double the dirty work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kante, an example already used was absolutely priceless for Leicester and now Chelsea but you can pick him up for peanuts in any fantasy league that only scores you points for goals, assists and clean sheets for defenders. He won't do much of any of those things but he will win the ball, recycle it, run tirelessly and distribute effectively. He'll be doing the dirty work, if he largely goes unnoticed it means he hasn't made a mistake and that's what we will want from him as a defensive midfielder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a perfect way to assess his play but it's better than the completely uninformed opinions sometimes spouted. I may be doing him a disservice, it was against Ajax so maybe he played with a greater degree of caution, but in the other snippets I've seen including a drubbing by Feyenoord, he appeared to play the same way. I hope he turns out to be a top player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnsleyOwl96 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 As much as I can’t wait to see himplaying for us, he needs time and im not sure how the Eredivisie compares to the championship especially after the likes of Ajax, Feyenoord and PSV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
